They let you transfer it to other services now, too. That's what I did for my photos and videos before deleting them from Facebook.

Foxconn subsidiary FIH, the owner of about 15% of HMD bonds, has published its financial report for 2022.

HMD’s revenues have dropped, prompting FIH to cancel investments in more Nokia-branded smartphones and phones. FIH also asked HMD to divest some products such as headphones.

HMD’s fundraising in 2022 was unsuccessful. HMD’s Board has extended the Series A2 financing round and hopes to close the round in 2023.

It's Firstpost, their Kremlin-bootlicking YouTube videos are even worse. Just below Forbes Breaking News trash.

There's not a lot these days ever since Opera and Edge switched to Chromium. You gotta move to Apple's ecosystem for an alternative.

The Adblockalypse is coming in c/memes@lemmy.ml

It's better than Chrome (which has no ad-blocker at all) but I find it doesn't block those insane pop-ups like uBlock on Firefox do. Kinda wish Microsoft would just bring their Add-on store on mobile Edge.

Don't underestimate people's lack of motivation to switch. Sadly Firefox doesn't come pre-installed on any major phone brands.

Most people just use the default browser on their phone, even in developed countries. Add to that Google's constant nagging to switch to Chrome which has a powerful effect at keeping their dominance.

If you like ChatGPT/care less about privacy, Bing is a great alternative.

~~I thought it was an announcement about Fediverse/ActivityPub integration. Blockchain is so 2021.~~

Edit: Nvm looks like it IS from 2020/21. Title is misleading.

What are some good European Lemmy instances? in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

Ah, thanks. For some some reason I can't find it online.

When you notice Lemmy is quieter than usual, then have a look at the Lemmy.world status in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

What happens if that instance shuts down?

  1. On my Threads profile, I changed my featured link to be my Mastodon profile URL.
  2. Then, on my Mastodon profile, I changed one of the featured links to be my Threads profile URL.
  3. After I saved that change, my Mastodon profile showed a green verification checkmark next to my Threads profile URL. Success!
